MULTI-PASS and multitasking workload are the focus here-not DART-specific dynamic radar drills or FEAST I cognitive modules.

What official FEAST materials reference
EUROCONTROL FEAST documentation lists MULTI-PASS among work-sample multitasking tests in the FEAST battery, alongside references such as DART. FEAST II is described on the candidate site as more complex multitasking following successful FEAST I.
Organisations choose which tests to administer. Package, order, and pass criteria are not universal.
What MULTI-PASS-style practice trains
Preparation targets:
- running concurrent sub-tasks without dropping mandatory checks
- prioritising when multiple queues demand action
- applying simple rules under divided attention
- recovering after a mistake without abandoning secondary duties
This is workload management-not memorising one unofficial interface.
Unique practice angle: priority ladder
Before timed practice, write a three-level priority ladder for the exercise (example pattern: safety/rule violation → time-critical item → routine update). During drills, pause once per minute to ask which level the current demand matches. Mis-prioritisation errors often exceed “slow reaction” errors in multitasking practice.
Pair short MULTI-PASS sessions with attention drills if you lose targets; pair with dynamic radar / DART drills if moving elements are the bottleneck.
How this differs from FEAST I multitasking labels
Some candidates conflate any “multitasking” label in FEAST I with FEAST II work samples. FEAST I builds foundational cognitive skills; FEAST II integrates them under higher load-see FEAST test format for staging.
What not to assume
- That MULTI-PASS and DART always appear together
- That commercial prep copies official MULTI-PASS exactly
- That practice vendor scores predict employer decisions
